Busy couple of days

Then last few days have been so busy! Wednesday I worked on splints formthe kids! I also did a lot of paper work for the Mariam center and played with the kids. Yesterday I taught my translator how to k it so she can help explain the knitting class for today, she picked it up real well and enjoyed it. Then evelayn one ofnthe Haitians on campus brought me a dress she looked so sad…the dressnhas a rip and she had a wedding to go to. I’m not that great at all at sewing but she asked me try. It’s not very often they get to try….I didn’t have everything I needed to make sure the hem would be even….but I said a prayer and went to work…it took 3 hours to sew it all by hand the whole time me hoping that when she puts it on the hem will be even…when I was done her face lit up she was so happy. She put it on and it looked amazing I was so happy for her. Then I worked with the for johnathans sake ( outreach program for disabled children) moms. I taught them how to canvas stich and they really enjoyed that. Then my ladies from la forge came and we set up for the American market. The market went real well and the ladies from forge had a blast. I put a power point together of the girls making the items and they just stood and stared at it…it occurred to me that they may never have even seen a computer before…let alone their picture up on one. It was really neat watching them laugh and giggle, like they were young school kids. Rays been working hard in the garage with chuck. Today will be another busy day. And I look forward to sharing with you. God bless
